that nelly example is very helpful

everything things people can relate to

a much more simple example could be "Rick Ross- Hustlin"

you bump into a nigga and he says "Man i'm hustlin man, everyday i'm hustlin"

so you can take that n just run with it



>A friend of mine, who's an MC, he says a hook needs to be

>"man, it's hot in here"... and because of that song, someone

>But as a producer, I took a different view. Even to use the
